Flooring installing services are essential to constructing and renovating residential houses and buildings, which are the industry's primary markets. Housing starts, the value of residential construction, private spending on home improvements and existing home sales all climbed through the end of 2023, enabling floor installers to thrive due to healthy downstream demand. This was especially evident amid the COVID-19 pandemic, as the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates to stimulate economic activity.
